Welcome to the third installment of Survivor "hot potato!"

In this game, you will pass a virtual potato around from player to player. The object of the game is to have the potato in your hands for as little time as possible!

- Since BLAKESGIRL lost the reward challenge, she will start with the potato.
- To pass the potato, just post who you want to pass it to. You can pick anybody who is still in the game.
- When you receive the potato, time WILL start accumulating until you pass it to someone else. The difference between the times of the posts will be added to your score.
- To make scorekeeping easier, time in this game is kept ONLY in 5 minute increments, and is rounded UP from the actual time difference. So even if you have the potato for only 1 minute, it counts as 5 minutes. 6 minutes will count as 10 minutes, and so on.
- When somebody accumulates 6 hours, they will be eliminated from the challenge. The challenge will end when 4 players are eliminated. The remaining player will be declared the winner and recieve immunity in the next tribal council.
- Once somebody gets eliminated, the potato will be in nobody's possession. At this point it's up for grabs and anybody can give the potato to anybody else.
- Larry and I will do our best to provide scoring updates and inform you when somebody is about to get eliminated, but be prepared to do some calculations yourself if we're not here.
- Invalid posts include:
* Giving the potato to someone when you don't have it
* Giving the potato to someone after you've been eliminated
* Giving the potato to someone who has been eliniated

BLAKESGIRL has the potato, and the clock is ticking!

-JD
Hey, I've been trying to get rid of this thing, but the boards have been down - make sure I get credit, okay????

I pass it back to you JD!
A couple of rulings need to be made here:

1) If two posts have the same timestamp, it will count as 0 minutes (I forgot that this board doesn't track seconds when I posted this challenge)

2) Bill Bobaggins will be credited for 10 minutes instead of 20, since the board was down for 10 minutes while she had it.

I admire Navydoc's use of <a href="http://www.ncaabbs.com/forums/ncaa/boards/ultimatebb.cgi?ubb=get_topic&f=1&t=001680&p=" target="_blank">strategery</a> in this game.
